Don't ask me to be an idiot

Wrong Place, Wrong Time

Could this be for real? An Indian man is claimed to be dead by meteorite!

Quote from the source:

“Indian officials say a meteorite struck the campus of a private engineering college on Saturday, killing one person. If scientists confirm the explosion was due to a meteorite, it would be the first recorded human fatality due to a falling space rock.

According to local reports, a bus driver was killed on Saturday when a meteorite landed in the area where he was walking, damaging the window panes of nearby buses and buildings. Three other people were injured.”

I thought I had terrible luck… This story still lacks a solid confirmation, but is oddly compelling none the less.

When I was a kid, maybe 11 or 12, I was walking with a friend one night. I picked up a stone and said “watch me nail this street light.” I threw the rock never expecting to actually hit it, but smack, dead center, light busted.
